Glycated Haemoglobin: A Predictor of Vascular Risk?
Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), a marker of average glycaemia during the previous six to eight weeks, is a predictor of microvascular complications in diabetic individuals. However, the role of HbA1c as a predictor of macrovascular complications (e.g. myocardial infarction or stroke) in these patients is not clearly defined. In contrast, new evidence suggests that HbA1c can predict the risk of ca...
متن کاملFructosamine or glycated haemoglobin as a measure of diabetic control?
Glycated haemoglobin A1 (HbA1c), fructosamine, and total serum proteins were measured in 30 normal and 61 diabetic children. The normal range for HbA1c was 4.7-8.8% and for fructosamine was 0.98-1.88 mmol/l. These were similar to adult normal ranges and there were no significant age differences during childhood. There was a highly significant correlation between HbA1c and fructosamine in the di...
متن کاملGlycated haemoglobin--a marker and predictor of cardiovascular disease.
Glycated haemoglobin is formed by simple chemical reaction between haemoglobin and blood glucose. It represents a reliable and moving average of blood glucose over preceding three months. In 2009 the International Expert Committee recommended the use of HbA1c to diagnose diabetes with a cut-off of 6.5%. Studies have shown that HbA1c even in the range of 5.5% to 6.5% poses considerably high risk...
متن کاملd-Ribose as a Contributor to Glycated Haemoglobin
Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) is the most important marker of hyperglycaemia in diabetes mellitus. We show that d-ribose reacts with haemoglobin, thus yielding HbA1c. Using mass spectrometry, we detected glycation of haemoglobin with d-ribose produces 10 carboxylmethyllysines (CMLs). The first-order rate constant of fructosamine formation for d-ribose was approximately 60 times higher than that ...
متن کاملArtifactually low glycated haemoglobin in a patient with severe hypertriglyceridaemia.
This report describes a case of artifactually low glycated haemoglobin (Hb) in a patient with type II diabetes and severe hypertriglyceridaemia. The effect of hypertriglyceridaemia on glycated Hb determination using the Abbott Vision method was investigated in a series of patients with diabetes. The interference of triglycerides in glycated Hb assays was also investigated by two other methods, ...
